A composition for use in vascular relaxation, wherein the composition includes at least one polyunsaturated fatty acid component and at least one anthocyanin component. The polyunsaturated fatty acid component is an ethyl ester of the omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) or docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), or an amino acid salt of EPA or DHA. The anthocyanin component is cyanidin-3-galactoside, or delphinidin-3-arabinoside. Further, the omega-3 fatty acid salt has an organic counter ion which is lysine, arginine, ornithine and mixtures of the same. The composition further includes cyanidin-3-galactoside. The composition further includes fruits extracts or cereals extracts. A method for treating a disease with the composition.

The present invention relates to a method for converting insects into nutrient streams, such as a puree, an enzymatically hydrolysed puree, a fat fraction and a protein fraction. The invention further relates to the (hydrolysed) puree and to the fractions obtainable by said methods and to their use as a food or feed product or as an ingredient therefore. The invention also relates to a method for converting insect larvae into a composition with anti-oxidant properties. Thus, the invention also relates to a method for converting insect larvae into an antioxidant composition. In addition, the invention relates to a composition with anti-oxidant properties obtainable by said method and to the use of the composition as a health promoting food ingredient or as a feed ingredient.

Provided is a method of preparing a granular feed additive. When the method of preparing a granular feed additive according to one exemplary embodiment is used, it is possible to prepare a granular feed additive including a high content of basic amino acids while preventing hygroscopicity and agglomeration caused by the basic amino acids. In addition, since the method of preparing a granular feed additive according to one exemplary embodiment may omit a process of using hydrochloric acid, which is generally used to neutralize basic amino acids, it is possible to simplify the process and to solve process problems caused by the use of hydrochloric acid.
